Hi Guys,

I recently got lucky on an auction & won some older Omega Catalogues/Brochures.

Amongst the brochures are 5 from the mid/late 50's. Here is one of them.

Click on the pic to see the whole brochure

It features the watch issued to commemorate the 1956 Olympics

If you want to read more about these watches, I can do no better than to direct you to => Desmonds PDF essay on Seamaster XVI watches

Most of the other brochures that I got are in German, so I'll not be as quick scanning & posting them.

Enjoy !

Steve
